When I start pc (ewido 4 loads in systray) ewido uses already a lot cpu. What I do: I open the main window of ewido and close it again. Then the cpu usage is gone. (less then 1 %)
mem:
ewido.exe 1,5 K
guard.exe 5K

Having the GUI Ewido open and "just sitting there" results in a continuous cpu usage ranging from 14% to 55%. In watching SysInternal's FileMon and DiskMon during this period shows Ewido doing a tremendous and consistent amount of file/disk activity.

I fell asleep in the early morning hours while doing a long download on dialup. When I woke up, Ewido had updated and there was a message that the program needed to shut down and restart. When I clicked OK, it did restart,but there was a momentary (somewhat startling) "blinK" or "flash" of my desktop when it did. I have also noticed a similar "flash" when logging in to Windows as Ewido appears in the system tray. I did not see this happening when I had version 3.5. Is anyone else experiencing this? I will attach a screen shot of my taskmanager taken several hours after the update. This is with the guard enabled and Spysweeper and McAfee AV both running RTP.

I just uninstalled the beta. Whenever it updated, it made my desk top "blink" or "convulse" for a moment. It did the same thing when loading in the system tray at start up of Windows. It was becoming hard to send emails through my AOL software and it was taking longer than normal to open my Windows control panel and various folders. Somehow, I think the beta is not "playing well" with the Windows shell, but I don't know enough about that to explain. I noticed that much more K was used overall with the beta. After I uninstalleld, I tried to download/install Ewido 3.5, but I kept getting a Windows message that the installer package was corrupt or that there was an error with my disc. I download and tried 3 times. Then I decided to thoroughly clean up. I went to delete some temp files, and Windows said it could not do it because there was a problem reading the disc. I ran sfc /scannow, chkdsk /R, and defragged. Then I downloaded 3.5 again, and it installed normally. I don't understand what was going on, but it reminds me a little or the problems I had when I was using Windows Defender. For example, sometimes sending a email with an attachment or screenshot, I would have to wait 15 minutes or more for it to upload. Normally it takes about a minute. Maybe someone with more knowlege can explain this. I am going to run Ewido 3.5 for a few days to see if any of the problems happen again while I am using it instead of version 4.0. Right now, I'm very frustrated.
